Everyone says, "get out of bangkok as quickly as you can", and I understand already. I'm staying at one of the many guesthouse/hotel type places with "sawasdee(hello)" in the name, which seems nice enough. About $4 US for a decent room with shared shower. It's on a side street from Khao San Rd which is the backpacker area. It doesn't really feel like I left home. In fact, it feels a lot like (insert your favorite Spring Break hangout here) except for the every so slightly increased proportion of Thais. My favorite are the roadside stands promoting "strong drinks, 60 baht($1.50). We don't check ids" where you can sit on a stool and share a bucket with a few straws. Maybe I'll get my hair dreadlocked while I'm here. What do you think? :)
I'm meeting up with a gal from Spokane tomorrow who has a merry gang of followers all of their way to siem reap. Hopefully we'll head on out of here within the next day or two. Anyway, i'm going to get out of here and hope that the gianormous cockroach that skittered past the door doesn't carry me away.
